How are the shoes you are wearing? If we write a shoe in Chinese character it means"leather changes".
Shoes which
we are currently using have a thick bottom so that they can lessn the impact to the foots. These shoes have been brought to Japan in 1870 for the first time. At the same time many other cultures
have been introduced in Japan.
The army has started
to use the shoes as a modern equipment from France, however, what was used
before the emergence of shoes was "Waraji", or Japanese traditional sandals using straws.
If we use Chinese character to spell Waraji, we write "grass shoe". It is a different character from the western one.
Waraji is made of straws, and straws are made from rice grass. The major product which we can get from the rice grass is rice.
The culture that has been evolved with the rice harvesting is called Inasaku-culture, or rice harvesting-culture.
